Retraction of Warden Notice

After further investigation and coordination with the Chinese authorities, the United States Government has determined that the information provided on June 9, 2006 no longer warrants a heightened level of concern. Our warden notice of June 9, 2006 is therefore retracted.

American citizens in China are always advised to be aware of their surroundings and remain alert to possible threats. Americans living or traveling in China are encouraged to register with the U.S. Embassy or their nearest U.S. Consulate through the State Department's travel registration website, https://travelregistration.state.gov/. By registering, American citizens make it easier for the Embassy or Consulate to contact them in case of emergency. U.S. citizens may contact the U.S. Embassy or Consulate directly to register in case they experience difficulties registering online.

U.S. citizens planning to travel to China should consult the Department of State's country-specific Public Announcements, Travel Warnings, Consular Information Sheets, the Worldwide Caution Public Announcement and other information, available at http://travel.state.gov/. Up-to-date information on security conditions can also be obtained by calling 1-888-407-4747 in the U.S. and for callers outside the U.S. and Canada a regular toll line at 1-202-501-4444.
